Stellar Property!

We absolutely loved staying at Fire & Ike! The home was lovely, kitchen and living area were very easy to hang out in and make memories. The beach view was fantastic, we even got to use the fire pit! (highly recommend). We could not have asked for a better stay at Crystal Beach. If you want to stay at a hassle free property where you can make priceless memories with your family, Fire & Ike is the place for you!

Great beachfront house

Our extended family stayed here and there was plenty of room for everyone. The short walk to the beach, beach toys in the storage room, comfortable bedding, cleanliness, the bedrooms were quiet even when people were in the living room or kitchen....all around awesome house. Definitely recommend and will rent again.

Wonderful break!

What a GREAT place! We came in for just a short time and wow, was it wonderful and relaxing. It really is right on the beach and great location, close to restaurants, grocery store, and bars! Great time watching the waves from the deck with coffee for morning and wine for evening, with beach time in between. The house had everything we needed and is beautiful. Just the recharge we were after, and we will definitely be back next year! Thank you!

Awesome cabin!

We really enjoyed this cabin. The location was awesome. We enjoyed the deck and beach toys for the kids and would go back! Our only complaint was the sensitive motion light near the windows of one of the bedrooms which could be mitigated with curtains in the bedrooms. Overall, wonderful cabin!

We had a wonderful stay at Fire & Ike. We had 3 families staying in the home and we were all very comfortable. The home had everything we needed and we loved being right on the beach. It was clean and well maintained and we would definitely return in the future. The kids loved the bunk bed room and were all able to stay together!

Absolutely perfect!

We had the absolute best experience from booking, rescheduling due to weather, check-in and an amazing stay. This house has the perfect location, layout and amenities. We have rented houses on Bolivar in the past but Fire and Ike is by far the best. I highly recommend this property and the management company was so kind and responsive.

Fire & Ike is a beautiful beach home with a stellar view! My favorite place was the deck off the great room. Half of it is in the shade, so anyone can enjoy the view, breeze and listening to the waves. The beds are very comfortable and the rooms are private. The kitchen is well equipped and there is plenty of space in the great room. There are plenty of beach "toys" and chairs and of course towels! I will definitely be back; love this place!

Perfect view

Our family and friends had a wonderful stay. We could stay on the porch and enjoy the view or walk a few steps to the water. Clean spacious house. We didn’t even discover the games and water toys in the garage until the morning we left.
